Top Ten Questions relating to Huddersfield Lease Extensions

  • Hi, I am looking somewhere around or in Huddersfield 8-10 years lease remaining houses. I dont know if I am on the right site. Can I find lease remaining houses from here?
  • I am looking to extend the lease on my ground floor flat in Huddersfield which will have sixety two years remaining in June. What fees do you charge for this?
  • This flat I have in mind requires only ground rent. Long lease so no lease extension required. I have asked the estate agents as to what happens to building insurance and responsibility for communal areas and if one of the two flats which make up the property wants to make alterations.They said they did not know. I cannot see how one could get buildings insurance for the whole building shared with another flat, either downstairs or upstairs. I do need to clarify things like this before I undertake all the expenses involved in purchasing a property I feel. Do freeholders actually supply their own insurance?
  • We hope to sell our garden flat in Huddersfield but we may require a lease extension, or possibly cover the expense of our buyers. Can you help me find a to undertake the legal formalities?

  • I am the freeholder of a property in Huddersfield where the leaseholder would like a lease extension. Her valuer has suggested a figure of £8,000, but has upped this by £2,000 without too much effort. My valuer has come back with £12,520. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to a FTT, can I deal with this myself, just equipped with the valuations I have? If not, what costs would I be likely to face?
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Huddersfield as it is coming up to the 80 year mark. As I understood it, if you extend your lease by the 90 years available, you pay a premium (£thousands) but the ground rent is reduced to a peppercorn. I am now told that I have to continue paying ground rent. I thought the major cost of a lease extension was to compensate the freeholder as they wouldn't be collecting ground rent anymore?
